Chapter 463: Chapter 256: The Method to Break the Formation
Boom, crash.
Black Mountain Seal hit heavily on the black light pillar. It slightly shuddered, but it was not damaged. The condensed black fog absorbed and dissolved the powerful impact.
“This Nine Nether Mysterious Killing Array is very strong.”
Wei Zongcheng was secretly alarmed. His full-powered Black Mountain Seal contained a very powerful force, capable of bombing a thousand-meter mountain, but he couldn’t break through the black fog-shrouded light pillar.
He urged the Black Mountain Seal again, for another heavy strike. The black fog surged like dancing dragons and snakes, but the black light pillar stood unshaken.
However, Wei Zongcheng’s eyes narrowed as he saw that due to the Black Silence Profound Thunder on the Black Mountain Seal, the black fog showed signs of dispersing.
Wei Zongcheng struck several more times before muttering inwardly: “Is the Power of Thunder the nemesis of this black fog?”
Boom.
With the relentless bombardment of Black Silence Profound Thunder, the black fog surrounding the black light pillar gradually began to thin out.
But nearby, more black fog was rapidly gathering, quickly filling the void left by the black fog eroded by the Black Silence Profound Thunder.
At this moment, Lu Yun cleared almost all the surrounding monsters with his powerful White Lotus Flame and rushed over after noticing that Wei Zongcheng hadn’t been making much progress.
“Wei Zongcheng, let me assist you.”
Upon hearing this, Wei Zongcheng felt relieved and promptly replied, “Brother Lu, this Thunder Power is the nemesis of these black fogs. Although the Black Silence Profound Thunder driven by the Black Mountain Seal has immense power, the consumption is quite large, and I am finding it difficult to sustain. I could use your help.”
“Besides Thunder Power, fire power can also vanquish these black fogs.”
As Lu Yun spoke, a firelight blazed in his hand. The light solidified into a giant lotus seat and whirled towards the black light pillar.
Boom, crash.
The explosion of the White Lotus Flame formed a sea of flames, annihilating the dense black fog at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“So powerful.”
Seeing how effective Lu Yun’s attack was once unleashed, Wei Zongcheng couldn’t help but admire his strength.
Although Wei Zongcheng could destroy these black fogs with the Black Silence Profound Thunder attached to his Black Mountain Seal, he was nowhere near as destructive as Lu Yun.
“Still lacking something.”
Lu Yun ascended into the sky, holding the Thunder Hammer in one hand and controlling the white flame lotus seat with the other, chopping heavily at the black light pillar.
“Boom.”
The condensed black fog was suddenly blasted apart, allowing the powerful Thunder Power and flame power to pour in.
“Buzz… ”
The towering black light pillar began to collapse. Spotting this, Wei Zongcheng’s eyes lit up and he shouted, “Brother Lu, give it another push. We’re about to succeed.”
“Roar.”
At this point, monsters from elsewhere had arrived. Noticing Lu Yun and others were ruthlessly destroying the black light pillar, they all let out raging roars, rushing crazily towards Lu Yun and Wei Zongcheng.
“These beasts are very strong. I can only hold them off for a dozen breaths. Brother Lu, make the best use of your time.”
“Enough.”
Lu Yun replied, his blood surged, and the intensity of the White Lotus Flame surged. Then, an even stronger White Lotus Flame emerged from his hand and poured violently into the black light pillar.
Whoosh, whoosh.
The powerful flames formed a wave that flooded the black light pillar and seeped into the bottom of the Black Nether River.
Then something amazing happened.
The black fog on the surface of the black light pillar began to dissolve and the number of monsters gathering around it began to dwindle.
“Hmm…”
Wei Zongcheng glanced at Lu Yun with surprise. He could feel the high temperature and strong threat emitting from Lu Yun’s flames.
“This spiritual fire must not be lower than the seventh grade.”
Although he had no fire seed, he had basic knowledge of the celestial spiritual fire. Such a grade of fire power is rarely mastered even among the seventh-grade alchemists.
Lu Yun, seeing the black fog disperse and the towering black light pillar starting to waver, ramped up the release of the flames, continuously destroying the foundation of the black light pillar.
Boom, crash, the black light pillar shuddered and collapsed. The profound light dispersed, the black fog retreated, and a massive hole was blasted in the Black Nether River.
Lu Yun entered the river hole and spotted a faint glowing array beneath.
“Whoa, whoa.”
As Lu Yun appeared outside the array, three black shadows materialized, emanating potent evil qi, and hurled themselves at Lu Yun.
Thunder surged around Lu Yun forming three thunder dragons, which blasted at the three black shadows.
“Bang, bang, bang.”
With the intense collision, the three shadows were blown away, revealing their true forms.
They were like the monsters outside but with larger bodies and more formidable aura. Indeed, they were close to the Late stage of the Rune Seed Realm. Ordinary people couldn’t tackle such powerful beasts.
“Roar.”
The three monsters launched a ferocious attack on Lu Yun. The heavy black shadows gave off evil qi like a chilly wind, chilling to the bone.
Unfortunately, this level of coldness posed no significant threat to Lu Yun, who had condensed his Gold Body using the Pure Yang Strong Origin.
Lu Yun released three white fire lotus seats which bombarded the monsters.
However, this level of flame could only repel the beasts, but couldn’t destroy them in a short period.
“Is my power not enough?”
So, Lu Yun immediately opened the panel and began to enhance the White Lotus Flame.
After consuming five hundred thousand energy points, the power of the White Lotus Flame noticeably advanced to 51% of the Seventh Rank.
The amplified White Lotus Flame increased several times in might, and the three monsters wrapped in an ocean of white fire couldn’t resist for long, they turned into dense black fog and eventually vanished completely.
With the monsters no longer guarding, Lu Yun went straight to the array and spurred the White Lotus Flame for a violent bombardment.
Once the array was destroyed, the towering black beam immediately dissipated.
“The monsters here have disappeared, it seems Lu Yun was successful.”
Wei Zongcheng breathed deeply in relief, if Lu Yun had been a step slower, he wouldn’t be able to withstand the monsters’ siege.
As soon as Lu Yun flew out of the water cavern, he spoke, “There are powerful monsters guarding the array below, and it won’t be easy for others to destroy it. We must hurry to assist them.”
“There are even more powerful monsters inside?”
Wei Zongcheng was completely dumbfounded. If the monsters outside were already so difficult to deal with, the thought of even more powerful ones inside was unimaginable.
Knowing this, he didn’t dare to dally and immediately followed Lu Yun towards the next black light pillar.
All the way, Lu Yun paved the path with flames, eradicating countless monsters within the powerful fire.
Wei Zongcheng noticed that the spiritual fire controlled by Lu Yun seemed to have become much stronger, but he was tactful enough not to inquire further.
Everyone has their own secrets, including himself.
Swiftly, the two reached the next black beam.
“Lu Yun and Wei Zongcheng are here.” The Earth-rank Demon Extermination Generals Xu Jiao and Jiang Han were overjoyed.
They had been at this location for a while, but they were always unable to do anything with this black beam. Now that Lu Yun and Wei Zongcheng had come as reinforcements, they breathed a sigh of relief.
The Black Silence Profound Thunder and White Lotus Flame simultaneously blasted the towering black pillar, and the black fog that filled the outside quickly faded, gradually blasting a gap in the black pillar.
“That simple?” Xu Jiao and Jiang Han, upon witnessing this, exchanged confused looks, somewhat in disbelief.
The two of them were not weak, especially Jiang Han, who was in the late stage of the Rune Seed Realm.
However, they were unable to do anything about the black beam.
Now, Lu Yun and Wei Zongcheng went into action, and they started to see results immediately. This caused shock in their hearts.
In response to their queries, Wei Zongcheng explained, “Flame and thunder power are the nemesis of these black fog, otherwise, it would be very difficult to break through them.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Jiao and Jiang Han realized that these black fog were condensed from Evil Qi and Death Qi.
The things that Evil Qi and Death Qi feared most were rigid and robust Yang forces, and the attributes of thunder and fire were exactly their nemesis.
“Roar.”
More and more monsters gathered, their roars of wrath shaking the heavens and the earth, encircling the four tightly.
“You guys deal with the monsters; leave the rest to me.”
Lu Yun instructed and then, with a thunderous hammer and strong white lotus flame, rushed toward the black pillar.
Rumble.
The black dense fog dispersed, and a vast water hole appeared before their eyes.
Lu Yun plunged into the water hole.
What came into view was still that array emitting faint light.
Before Lu Yun could approach, three powerful monsters charged over.
The three monsters’ strength became even stronger, nearly approaching the late stage of the Rune Seed Realm.
However…
Unless their strength truly advanced to the late stage of the Rune Seed Realm, they would not be able to resist the White Lotus Flame for long.
Just a few moments later, the three powerful monsters were obliterated by the White Lotus Flame, and the array inside was also destroyed by Lu Yun.
The second black pillar disappeared, along with the Evil Qi and Death Qi clinging to the site.
“Lu Yun, well done.”
After Lu Yun came out of the water hole, Jiang Han and Xu Jiao gave him thumbs up, praising him with smiles.
“We must break the arrays under these black pillars to completely resolve the Nine Nether Profound Slaughter Life and Death Array. We need to hurry.”
Lu Yun led the three and quickly moved upstream along the Black Nether River.
Downstream were Bai ChangFeng, Hong Xingwu and others. With their strength, breaking the black pillar and eliminating the array-guarding monsters shouldn’t be too hard.
The ones heading upstream, however, were weaker.
Just as Lu Yun, along with Wei Zongcheng and others, arrived at the next black pillar, there came a rumbling sound from behind. A black pillar that pierced the sky began to collapse.
Then, another black pillar collapsed.
“We’ve only destroyed four arrays now. We need to speed up.”
Lu Yun thought, knowing that as time passed, not only were the monsters outside becoming stronger, but the monsters guarding inside the array were also becoming even more terrifying.
After another half hour, Lu Yun destroyed the array and shot out from the water hole.
His gaze quickly swept across the sky, and saw there were still five black pillars undestroyed.
And now, the agreed half hour was getting closer and closer.
Lu Yun looked at Wei Zongcheng and said, “We’re running out of time. We have to split up and help the others.”
Wei Zongcheng and the others did not have objections. They then split into two groups, turning into streaks of rainbow light before rushing towards their next targets.
On the way, Lu Yun noticed that although the number of congregated monsters was decreasing, the ones left were becoming stronger due to earlier fights and consumption.
Even before they reached the vicinity of the black beam, monsters as powerful as those at the Rune Seed Realm level had already appeared.
As time went on, the monsters would continue to escalate in strength through incessant fighting and consumption.
